Standard Metal Works is an ornamental fabrication shop,specializing in, but not limited to, gates, railings andfurniture. While Standard’s current iteration is relativelynew, its roots are old. Shortly before the start of WWI,the Reynolds family started Standard Machine Shop,located at 10th and Walnut here in Boulder. There, fornearly 70 years, they built everything from farm implementsto parts for Apollo spacecraft. Merle Reynolds walked fromhis home on Mapleton Hill to work at his shop every daywell into his 80s, and was as hardworking and honest manas they come. Doing our best to follow the examples of our forefathers, we run an honest shop and produce onlyquality work.
